Qiu Yan led Xie Lingyun in front, and Mama Liu had already followed from the house at this time, probably knowing that her self-action had made Xie Lingyun unhappy, this time she didn't point fingers again, just silently followed, and walked towards the courtyard of the eldest lady.

The three of them walked through the small and unique verandah, and stepped up the stone steps, the scenery in the courtyard entered the bottom of the eye, raised the pavilion, the small bridge and flowing water, everywhere chic, even the flowers and plants on both sides of the road, and the trees and rocks that can be seen everywhere, are so exquisite.

Xie Lingyun walked slowly, while looking at the surrounding scenery, in her heart secretly sighed that Xie Mansion was unusual, and her mood was even heavier, as soon as she entered the mansion, the more unusual, the more unusual Xie Mansion was, indicating that the battle and secret battle hidden in this magnificent mansion door were also more powerful, at this time, she really hoped that she would come through, not to become a lady of the house who was served, but a village girl who farmed in the countryside, although the days were harder, but she believed that life would be much simpler.

"Miss, please be careful under your feet, there is snow here, be careful of slippery roads, let the slave help Miss walk." Qiu Yan carefully raised her hands.

Xie Lingyun looked at his feet, and sure enough, there was snow on the road, as if he turned his head inadvertently, and glanced deeply at Mama Liu, who was following behind him, not knowing what he was thinking, and then raised his hand and gently put it on the slender arm that was waiting in front of him, "How long will it take to get there." ”

It was Mama Liu who answered her, as if she hadn't seen Qiu Yan, she stepped forward in a few steps and squeezed Qiu Yan away, raised her hand to support Xie Lingyun, and said with an unnatural smile:

"Miss, bear with me a little longer, and after two more walks, we will go to the courtyard of the eldest lady."

Xie Lingyun just nodded and didn't say anything. Yu Guang glanced at Qiu Yan, who automatically retreated behind her.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, I finally came to the courtyard of the eldest lady, and the scenery here was different from the scenery that Xie Lingyun saw when she came, the decoration was very chic, and there was a sense of luxury.

It's just that Xie Lingyun at this moment has no intention of enjoying the surrounding scenery anymore, probably because of this body, because of illness and weakness, he has only walked for a while, and he feels a little tired, top-heavy, as if he is about to collapse, and he is slightly wheezing.

The person who is guarding the door of the eldest lady at this moment, Xie Lingyun happened to have seen it, it was she who visited her twice when she was sick, and it was said that the eldest girl Huan Qiaofeng, who was very trusted in front of the eldest lady.

The impression left by this woman on Xie Lingyun was quite acceptable, first of all, regardless of who Qiaofeng was with on an errand, when Qiaofeng visited her twice, she didn't look at her with contempt like the maids sent to visit her by several young ladies in the house, so she thought that this person was not bad.

Just as he was about to step forward, Qiao Feng had already seen the three masters and servants, bowed down, and said with a capable voice:

"The slave maid greets Miss Nine, Miss Nine feels good now, is she here to say hello to the eldest lady?" frowned lightly and glanced at Mama Liu who was standing at the door.

Xie Lingyun stepped forward, stretched out her hand to help her up, and said politely, "Sister Qiaofeng, please get up, I feel better today, I haven't asked my mother for a few days, I feel very uneasy, I came here to ask my mother to say goodbye today, and I am tired of Sister Qiaofeng." ”

Qiao Feng looked at Xie Lingyun, whose face was even paler because of walking, sighed in her heart, and sighed secretly, Miss Shuchu's days were not as comfortable as her, who was a human maid. Emotion is emotion, after all, she still knows who she is serving in front of her, and who she should be.

Therefore, even if it was cold outside and Miss Jiu's face was very bad, she could only pretend to ignore it, let the master and servant wait outside, and she went in to tell the eldest lady.

Xie Lingyun was silent, taking in the changes in Qiaofeng's eyes, and secretly remembered it in her heart, knowing that she was not looking at the wrong person, she was relieved and had some calculations at the same time.

None of the three masters and servants spoke, standing at the door and waiting respectfully, and after a while, Qiaofeng came out of the house, Xie Lingyun was ready, and was about to stand outside to greet the hostess of the Xie Mansion in the house, but heard:

"Miss Nine, the eldest lady, please come in and talk."

Get in? Xie Lingyun's good-looking willow eyebrows moved slightly, didn't Mama Liu say that she was sick, and she couldn't see the face of the eldest lady today, so she could only greet her outside the door?

But at this time, in this place, it is not the time to think about this, looking at the curtain that Qiaofeng opened for her, she took a deep breath, and said secretly, anyway, sooner or later, you have to see the so-called original owner's mother-in-law, and it is the same if you see it early or late.

She cheered herself up in her heart, raised her feet and walked in, "Daughter greets her mother." ”

Xie Lingyun entered the house, didn't look at it much, first saluted, greeted, in a loving 'call' voice, she slowly straightened up and looked up, and saw two people sitting on the left and right of the main seat, stunned, what is the situation?

Subconsciously looked at the person sitting on the right first, it was the hostess of Xie Mansion who had just spoken out to let her get up, that is, the original owner's mother-in-law, wearing a blue dark flower skirt and splendid peony flower leather armor, with high cloud temples and a little light makeup, she was a graceful and luxurious middle-aged woman, but the corners of her eyes were hung high, which destroyed her overall image a little, and she looked a little stern.

Then she looked to the left, that is, the so-called upper seat, another middle-aged uncle who was sitting and drinking tea, and without anyone telling her, she guessed in her heart that this person must be the male owner of Xie Mansion. The appearance is dignified, the jade tree is in the wind, and the grace is suave, this is her evaluation of the male owner of the Xie Mansion in front of her, that is, the father of the original owner, although he is not a charming middle-aged beautiful uncle, but he is also good-looking, just looking at this glance, she knows in her heart that the appearance of the original owner must be with her mother-in-law who passed away.

This discovery made Xie Lingyun feel even more helpless, it would be good if the original owner really looked like his father, but like his mother, it would be too bad; Think about it, what wife can rejoice in front of another woman and the child she has with her all day long; And that child looks very much like the appearance of a concubine who had a child with his father-in-law, isn't this adding to the blockage? Perhaps this is also the reason why the original owner is not treated well by the eldest wife.

Xie Lingyun secretly guessed in his heart, but he heard the eldest lady's still gentle voice sounding - the eldest lady said with a smile:

"Hehe, master, look at our child, I haven't seen my master for a few days, as if I forgot you, I even forgot to ask for peace" raised his hand to cover his mouth and smiled, and made a joke about the male host:

"Master, in the future, but it's good to see these children often, otherwise maybe one day, maybe this child really doesn't know you as a father, hehe."

Xie Lingyun's heart trembled, what a big lady, she secretly hid needles when she spoke, she was to the point, it sounded harmless and funny, but she said that she was not close to the father in front of her, this was provoking the relationship between father and daughter, and it was really the stepmother's style; I didn't ask her how she was doing, but I wanted to give her eye medicine.

Xie Lingyun sneered in her heart, this girl is not the original owner, she is not afraid that you will come to this trick, and she will also play tricks in front of her, she is not ashamed, and she feels ashamed of her.

At that moment, she didn't wait for the man's reaction, and then said with a standard salute and a joyful voice:

"The daughter greets her father, the father is blessed, and the daughter is so happy to see her father here today, she forgot to say hello to her father, and I hope that the father will not blame her daughter."

After a pause, Xie Lingyun, who bowed his head and saluted, heard a very magnetic voice and said: "Get up, my father didn't blame you, it's also that my father is busy with outside business, so I don't see you much, listen to your mother, you are sick, but now you are so good?" ”

Xie Mansion's eldest lord, that is, Xie Chongtian, the head of Xie Mansion, is in his forties, but he looks like he is thirty years old because of his comfortable and comfortable life; And because he is busy taking care of business all day long, he is an adult who socializes outside the home, and he doesn't see a few children all year round. Hearing Xie Lingyun's words, he felt a little guilty.

"Thank your father for your concern, now that her daughter is fine, she hasn't asked her mother for a few days, and she is very uneasy. Pretending to be well-behaved and saying something flattering, Xie Lingyun straightened up and looked at the eldest lady first, and sure enough, as she thought, the eldest lady's face was full of surprised expressions that could not be concealed, and the corners of Xie Lingyun's mouth were gently lifted, showing her happy mood at the moment.

Although she knew that doing this could be regarded as indirectly matching the eldest lady, in her later life, she might have to face the difficulties of the eldest lady, but she couldn't put up with the behavior of the eldest lady.

She doesn't care what the mode of getting along with the original owner and the eldest lady is, since she is now the original owner, she is the ninth miss of the Xie Mansion, although she is just an unfavored concubine, but she will definitely not be a soft persimmon, especially in front of the eldest lady.
